his party, saying that he has not been
In accord with the Republican party
for some years, but as a rule his selec-
tion is highly commended by leading
men OF both sides. The Democrats
would have been gratifed if ex-
Representative Morrison's name had
headed the list for the longest term Of
office, six years, and Judge Cooley
been given the second place But, at
the White House, the explanation of
this was that the Judge had made
such sacrifice to accept a place on
the commission that it was the least
the President could do to name him
first. 1t is said he sacrificed $4,000
per annum as receiver for the 81 800
salary of Commissioner.
In politics the commission, as was to
be expected, is divided between
democratic majority and republican
minority. The representative charac-
ter of each of the democratic members,
Messrs. Morrison, Schoonmaker and
Bragg, will pass without question.
Mr.. Schoonmaker is said to be the
| personal selection of the President.
Hewas trusted friend of the. late Gov.
Tilden and has long had the confidence
of Mr.. Cleveland. Mr.. Walker of
Vermont has the partisan endorsement
of Senator Edmunds, and Judge
Cooley, if questioned, would pronounce
himself Republican.
The list of names reveals a conscl
entious effort to secure the most COM
petent, qualified and able men who
could be obtained for the salaries.
In each case there is something to give
the man peculiar claim to the distinc-
ton. Messrs. Cooley, Walker and
Bragg have been prominently identi
fed with the subject of governmental
relations to the railroads. Mr.. Bragg,
as president of the Alabama Railroad
Commission, and Mr. Walker, as a
member of the Vermont Senate, have
had experience in the formation and
execution of legislation affecting the
railroads, and Judge Cooley is per-
haps the most eminent authority in
the United States on subjects of Con-
stitutional law affecting inter state
commerce.
Mr.. Morrison is qualified by his long
experience as alawmaker, his thorough
study of commercial questions and his
universally recognized integrity and
earnestness. Mr.. Schoonmaker's
special fitness for the appointment 1ies

A FOOLISH NEW YORK LAW,
That Injuries a Profitable North Caro-
lima Industry.
Special Correspondence of The Sentinel.


Special Correspondence of The Sentinel.
New York, March 29.-There was
a law passed by the State Legislature
year ago, making it misdomeanor
to sell reed birds on the New York
markets. This you know is the New
Jersey name of what in North Caro-
lima you call the "rice bird or the
"coot." The same bird, by the way,
earlier in the Summer remains in the
tar North and is there called the
''bobolink." He there fills the air in
June with his CHEEKY song, tarries
awhile in New Jersey, and thence
hastens South, in July, changes his
tune and his plumage and begins
raid upon the rice fields.
1t costs the North Carolina rice
farmers thousands of dollars annually
to keep these birds from entirely de-
stroying their rice crops. Hundreds
Of men and boys are hired with shot
guns to kill them, and the birds are so
fat that Wren they fall to the ground
they burst open. These are the birds
that are shipped TO this market and
are considered the daintiest food that
can be procured.
A game dealer OF this city said to
me to-day, "The present game law
of New York worked loss of
100000 to the game dealers Of this
city last year
So you can see that it is matter
of concern to doubtless many of The
SENTINEL's readers in the rice grow
ing district of North Carolina, tat
this foolish law be repealed so as 70
allow the game men here to bestow a
lucrative patronage upon the shippers
of rice birds or "coots" to this market.

THE DURHAM RULL CASE.
'rhe Supreme Court Grants J. H. Nc
E1wee New Trial.

From the Raleigh Flsitor.
The Supreme Court on Monday last
filed decision granting a new trial to
the defendant in the case of the Black
well Tobacco Mfg. Co. VS.. McElwee.
This case is a branch of a series of
suits which have occupied the atten-
ton of the Courts in this State for
some years. The suit was originally
brought by Mr.. j. III. McElwee against
Mr.. W. T. Blackwell and Mr.. j. S.
Carr for damages for interfering with
him in the use of the famous Bull
brand on smoking tobacco, McElwee
claiming that he owned one half of the
trade mark, and was entitled to use it.
This action was dismissed by the Su-
perior Court Judge, but on appeal to
the Supreme Court this judgment was
reversed and the case sent back for a
new trial. 1t is now pending in the
Court below. While this suit was
pending the Blackwell Tobacco Mfg.
Co, who were the successors of w. L.
Blackwell & Co., and claimed to own
the entire trade mark, brought suit
to enjoin McElwee from using the
| trade mark, which he had been claim
ing up to that time. The Court below
granted the Injunction, but the Su
| preme Court on McElwee's appea
have just granted new trial. Tht
trade mark is valued at several hund
| red thousand dollars.

PRICE 5 CENTS.

1t will be remembered that in 1859
Rutherford county subscribed $4,000
in county bonds to the Wilmington,
Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad
Company, and something over thirty
thousand dollars in bonds were deliv-
cred to the company and have since
been paid. The rest of the bonds
were, it has been said, never delivered,
though the complaint sets out that
they were delivered and given back
to the county to have an informality
cured and were then not returned.
The Wilmington, Charlotte and Ruth
erfordton Railroad Company became
insolvent and was succeeded by the
Carolina Central Railway Company,
and this, in turn, was succeeded by
the Carolina Central Railroad Com
pany. 1t is as the successor of the
Wilmington, Charlotte and Ruther-
fordton Railroad Company that the
Carolina Central Railroad Company
sets up its claim. The claim will be
vigorously contested by the county.

to the bedside, and said huskily,

CHAPTER XIX.-[CoNTINUED.]

I sat down and wrote first, a note
to Mrs. Vivian, asking her to send
for me on Thursday afternoon. I
would spend the night at Ravens
wood" and return to Barronville"
on Friday morning" Then to
"Philip" thus
"To Mr.. Philip Sterling:
Dear Sir-I have received your
note, and availed myself of your kind
permission to make use of your SER
want in sending a note to Mrs.
Vivian, who 1 am sure will comply
with my request for an escort to
"Ravenswood tomorrow after
noon, when [ will be pleased to
meet you, and give you the informa-
ton you desire. 1 earnestly hope
that it will be for "joy" and not
for "sorrow." There is too much
of the last in the measure of each
poor mortal. and / trust that hap
piness may be the portion of some,
if not of all. I will do my best to
bring you what I can, both of COM
fort and happiness.
Very truly and respectfully,
Lillian Rembert."
I gave the two notes to the nice
looking, polite servant man, and
directed him to take the road that [
pointed out towards Ravenswood.
He said he "could easily find the
way" and rode off. [ watched him
until I saw him take the right turn
in the road, and then returned to
little Lula and my duties.
That evening as DIR. Barron came
in YEARLY from his now daily hunt
ing expedition, I felt so sorry fol-
him, that I determined to give him
such comfort as [ could, so / went
out on the porch as he stood lighting
his cigar, and said quietly,
DR.. Barron, you will be glad te
hear that Mr.. Sterling has come
here is note that I received from
him to-day"
He started as if he was shot, anG
took the note without saying word
After he had read it, he looked al
me with his sad, blood-shot eyes, ano
said,
"What did you reply"
1 told him, and he only said
"That is WELL"
"Do you think Mrs. Barron viii
object to my spending the night a
Ravenswood ?" [ asked, to which h
replied,
1t does not make a particle o
difference whether she does or not
do just exactly as you please"
This was a real relief to me, as :
knew that he had as good a right t.
